Rita enjoyed life on the lake, canoeing, paddle boarding and bonfires, especially with her favorite young people. She loved gardening, anything arts and crafts, and cherished the annual family deer-hunting weekend.

Also survived by numerous aunts, uncles and cousins near and far, and special friends, Jenny & Kathy Norson. A special, heartfelt thank you to Douglas Yee MD, Lucia Reinhardt PA-C, and the wonderful people at the University of Minnesota, Masonic Cancer Center.
